Product presentationsNews from M2M, remote maintenance and telecontrol
In the course of Industry 4.0, remote control - i.e. remote access to machines and systems - and the topic of M2M communication in general are becoming increasingly important. The picture gallery shows a selection of current products in this area.
NetModule is expanding its router family with the NB800 EcoRouter. The 95 mm × 75 mm × 35 mm industrial router is available in either an IP40 or IP65 housing and is suitable for stationary use in indoor or outdoor environments. The standard version offers a power consumption of <5 W at full load. The gateway enables any Internet applications to access remote end devices and intranet sites that can be connected via the VPN protocol suite. Networking with 3G/4G mobile networks takes place via an integrated modem, which ensures WWAN networking with Fast Ethernet data rates (100 Mbit/s).
Local sensors and machines can be integrated into a network via an optional combo module for WiFi IEE802.11abgn, Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). On request, application-specific extensions support additional protocols, such as the low-power wireless protocols LoRa, Sigfox, 6LoWPAN, Zigbee, NFC or even wired protocols such as USB, CAN, RS232 and RS485. Integration into a network management system is possible via the SNMP interface.
